Do you have stationery left over from 2022?

Nat Claire from Altrusa International of Ohariū

Happy New Year! If you are sorting through your kids school gear: we are collecting unused and unwanted stationery from previous years. We will redistribute the stationery to local schools for kids who otherwise won’t have books and pens of their own.

If you have stationery to donate you can drop it off to Churton Park Community Centre during its opening hours .

Or you can text Emily on 021424353 or message us on here to arrange collection.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
